Dividend Maintained: Monroe Capital Corporation paid a $0.25 per share dividend for Q1 2025, resulting in a 14.3% annualized yield, supported partially by $0.53 per share of undistributed spillover income.
Lower Investment Income: Adjusted net investment income was $4.2 million ($0.19 per share), down from $6.2 million ($0.29 per share) last quarter, due to lower yields, a smaller portfolio, and reduced interest rates.
Portfolio Contraction: Investment portfolio size decreased to $430.6 million from $457 million last quarter, with 85 portfolio companies versus 91 previously.
Stable Asset Quality: Asset quality remains steady; nonaccruals held at 3.4% of fair value, and management exited several previously underperforming assets.
SLF Portfolio Deleveraging: The Senior Loan Fund portfolio continues to decline, reflecting a lack of constructive outlook on the upper middle market segment.
No Immediate Dividend Cut: Management intends to use spillover income to support the dividend in the near term, but acknowledges that net investment income is currently below dividend levels.
Strategy Unchanged After Wendel Deal: The new Wendel partnership does not change Monroe's independent operation or investment strategy for MRCC, though management remains open to strategic evolution.
